MilSpouse Friday Fill-In #37

Trying something new this week-- It’s a meme hosted by Wife of a Sailor.    

1. With PCS moves happening every few years, do you take the time to paint and decorate your home? submitted by Life as Mrs. JPT
Why, yes, I do.  I am in my home with the kiddos for the better part of our days since we homeschool, and white gets old FAST.  I change decor seasonally and the kids enjoy being a part of it all.  Helps whichever house we are in at the time feel more like a home.  And if truth be told, I’ve also been known to switch out a light fixture or two...

2. If you could live in any home on a television series, what would it be? submitted by Standing By Him
Camille and Zeek’s  house on Parenthood.  Love her gardens, their porch, their garage, their kitchen and even the re-done barn (I think it is a barn) that their daughter Sarah lives in.  I’d also live Adam and Kristina’s home-- looks like a craftsman style-- my favorite.

3. What inspired you to start your blog?  submitted by Pink Combat Boots

The need for family and friends back home to feel connected.  I’m terrible about emailing photos--always seem to miss that one person that was waiting to see updates.  Also, I intended for my blog to serve as a scrapbook of sorts.  I’ll be years behind in printing family pictures for YEARS to come, so for me, this is the next best thing.

4. What is the weirdest thing you’ve ever seen on base? submitted byAdventures in Life

Hmmm... I’m sure if my husband was a part of Security Forces I could answer this question better.   I’m usually too busy to notice anything weird...  But, I have had the feeling that MY family is the weirdest thing a lot of other people have ever seen on base. ;-) 

5. Which historical figure (politician, writer, artist, scientist, actor, etc…) would you like to have dinner with?  submitted by Army of Two

Hands down, JPII-- The Venerable, soon to be Blessed, Pope John Paul II.
